On the topic of board selection which way round should the SoC vs. board
options be arrange? Should we have invisible TARGET_SUN?I options which
are selected by each board, or should we have the boards depend on the
appropriate TARGET?

In the first case a user would need to choose from a pretty long list of
boards, in the second case they would need to know which SoC the board
has.

I'm leaning towards the first.

I don't think either would be an impediment to an eventually single
common binary which I'm imagining would appear as a "Generic board"
option which depends/selects all appropriate SoCs.
